Unlike labyrinth, which has a slightly stuffy smell of dust mixed in the air due to the large floating population.
“Whoa… … .”
I took a deep breath, and the air smelled like a green smell that spreads after my horse ran through the grass, not the road.
“It’s refreshing.”
Kaweeek-
what.
I feel the freshness of the air for a while, but I hear a strange sound from behind.
“No, why is the crow vomiting?”
“hmm. Is that an avian plague?”
Kaweep? Aww!
Seeing the vomit crow, Zero sneaks off and flaps in anger, then vomits again.
Was it somehow mixed with the portal, or was the crow originally here contracted the endemic disease?
The first time in the portal, Zero’s horse vomited and staggered, and when he came out of the gate, the building style that was different from Labyrin or Adelian’s hometown Laves caught my eye first.
Stone, gypsum, and magic clay similar to cement are not the building styles that show a certain degree of unity when looking at the city as a whole. Even buildings that look like they are twisted.
It definitely feels like a place where many tribes live together.
A tribe of frogs carrying a slave with a mister, a tribe reminiscent of a Minotaur with one broken horn.
A man who looks almost like a human, but has a long crocodile tail on his hip.
Looking around, the percentage of demi-humans is higher than in other cities I have visited so far.
To some extent, it almost feels like a reversal.
‘Here, Kane and I are a minority.’
I shrugged and looked at Luna, who was looking around with a new face.
“How long will it take from here to Luna’s house?”
“If you look at the current time, you must have come out a little in search of water and grass… I think I can get to you in a week, Bocchan.”
Faster than most other horses, even with our horses that run for a long time, it would take about a week. In the case of transportation such as wagons, it would take a month at worst.
“There are things to do on the way, so you won’t be bored. Luna tells Zero some miscellaneous things.”
I ignored the eyes that were glancing at us and mounted the horse.
Taking care of Zero, who is still not good at horseback riding, he opened the codex while moving his horse at a slightly faster pace.
Seeing that, Kane opened his backpack and read a book, and Luna started talking to Zero and teaching him about the edible grasses on the side of the road.
‘It’s a less crowded place and I got some time to spare. It’s perfect to check the attribute stone enchantment.’
As the codex was left floating, I turned the pages with only my fingertips, then opened the subspace with my free hand and took out several attribute stones.
A slightly warm fire attribute stone. A wind attribute stone that makes you feel the air rushing through your hands.
I opened the page of the codex with magic missile, the most basic non-attribute magic, and rolled a daguk and attribute stone in my hand and placed one of them on the page.
rubbing.
“Oh, isn’t this?”
I rummaged through my memory of the attribute stones and codex that didn’t change even when I swiped them across the page.
How did you enchant in Innocent Saga?
‘Somehow, click and drag with the mouse.’
I narrowed my eyebrows and rubbed the attribute stone on the page as well as the cover of the codex, then threw the attribute stone into the subspace as if throwing it.
Sometimes, if you drag an attribute stone to the wrong thing, the attribute stone disappears with a popping sound, so I waited until it came to a wide area in case it exploded.
Doesn’t this even respond?
“therefore… The tip of the leaf split into three branches like that… If you boil it in lightly salted water, the tingling taste will go away… … .”
“Senior Rabbit. It’s so amazing. It’s like something magical. That many things change depending on the act of steaming, drying, and frying.”
Luna hesitantly speaks as if she is still shy from Zero, and Zero listens with her eyes wide open.
Even on top of a swaying horse, the main character sits like a picture and reads a book.
I took out a fire attribute stone from the subspace again and started playing around with it.
Anyway, since Innocent Saga is a game, it is unavoidable that there are some differences from the real world.
Click and drag should have been put in to increase convenience.
Charr-
With the Codex floating in the air, he turned the attribute stone in one hand and the ring in the other as a habit, then suddenly lowered his gaze.
Although it is a blood magic that is passed down through blood, if you look at the use of Kruger’s ring itself, it is said that even Adelian’s body, which is not talented in magic, responds to basic magic.
I laughed a little when I felt something flashing through my mind.
The codex right now isn’t magic itself, it’s more like a storage box if you have to put it that way.
I handed over the codex with the same grip on the fire attribute stone again, and placed my empty hand on top of the magic missile.
“By the power of truth.”
From the moment I put my hand on the codex and cast a spell that draws out the endowed power.
From the moment I pronounce ‘truth’, I feel the power of the attribute stone move through my body, and the moment I finish saying ‘by force’, the activated magic missile turns red and I feel a slight heat sensation.
“… young master?”
“There are no monsters nearby, so what’s the matter?”
“Help me… … .”
I smirked as I watched the eyes of the three turn to me.
“I’m experimenting with something.”
I flicked my finger and fired a magic missile at a withered tree in the distance.
pop!
Soon after, the smoke rises from the round groove, and it burns up into flames as if exploding and engulfs the tree.
“Looks like you succeeded.”
* * *
After the first successful day, he sits on a horse outside of the time to set up a tent, rest, or eat, and is thinking about it while holding the elongation attribute stone and the codex.
someone might say
‘Isn’t it just a matter of putting all the magic for each attribute in the codex?’
yes, no
Finding one of them is a job, and the pages of the codex are not infinite.
If you enchant about 200 cards that are too strong, there are cases where they are torn apart as soon as they are activated.
Of course, I haven’t been given that kind of strong magic yet, but it’s possible if Rachel or Guardia come in as a party member later.
So, randomly assigning attributes to a single spell is not only easier in terms of inventory management, but also saves time during combat.
‘Cheap there. Of course, there is a lot of money, but basically Koreans like good value for money.’
Of course, over there, Koreans refer to me as Suho Kang.
It saves time and money rather than coaxing and requesting a self-respecting wizard to receive this or that magic.
I started experimenting with magic flying away from me to the opposite side of the riding party.
Magic Missile, which is a non-attribute, seems to activate the attribute stone as a single attribute, and in the case of arrows that have already been assigned attributes, it feels like the attributes are not changed but combined.
Combining a wind arrow with a fire attribute stone creates a bigger explosion, and mixing it with water creates an arrow that shoots water with a high-pressure sprayer.
In addition, the attribute stone turns into a gray stone immediately, as if the power of the attribute stone is greater than that of non-attribute magic.
It’s fun, and it feels like a tycoon.
I want to try more things, but there is no official mage tower here, and even if it is, being granted with money is close to gambling, so I should save it.
“You must have had a guest your magic experiment didn’t invite, Adelian.”
The moment I closed the codex with a sigh, Kane’s words opened to me, heh heh… He sighed and smiled, and opened the codex again.
“It is unfair.”
“what.”
“I’m only guilty of burning and destroying a few trees.”
Even looking at it, it was roasted and roasted only with dead wood!
Despite my chagrin, Kane pretends to have heard and then chins up somewhere.
Since it was flat all around, I could see blurry figures surrounding us and approaching us even though we were quite far away.
Bataktabak-
From noble mtl dot com.
As I got closer, there was not the sound of horses’ hooves, but the sound of wide feet treading on the sandy grass.
“There, foreigners. Stop.”
A woman with white hair braided into several layers and tied in one place, riding a mount that looked like a huge sheep, pointed a small arrow and warned from afar.
I raised both hands to show that I had no intention of fighting, then opened my mouth.
“What are you doing?”
Despite my polite tone, those who stood behind the woman like bodyguards snorted and looked fierce, as if they seemed arrogant or arrogant.
It’s unfortunate, really… … .
“Our Chavids do not let outsiders into the interior for the time being. go back.”
oh! Look at that, Kane. It’s not because I use magic.
I just came here because of discrimination against foreigners. Got it?
When I looked at Kane with triumphant eyes, I sighed and shook my head.
“But we’ve come to see you. Excuse me, are you the King of Chavid?”
When I say this with a smile while raising both hands, the Sanyang woman’s horizontal pupils become thinner and longer.
“Don’t be sarcastic. I am not the king of Chavid, but as the chief of the chief tribe that manages this area, I have the authority to exercise my full potential.”
In response, I glanced at Luna, who was wearing a robe with a slight drowsiness, and spoke to her in a slightly softer tone.
“Chief, we intend to visit a friend’s house for a while. If you can’t pass, please tell me clearly why you can’t.”
“Outsiders don’t know.”
I’m pissed.
I’m not a racist like Kane, nor an aristocratic supremacist buried in the caste system.
‘If you’re not the future Beast King, why are you interfering with people coming and going?’
Of course, there are reasons to guess.
Increased beast slaves, food driven to the desert.
From their point of view, I know that outsiders don’t want to see me now, but honestly, to my eyes, who can guess the situation to some extent, the situation only seems like territorialism and venting anger.
I slowly lowered my raised hands and sat cross-legged on top of the horse, twisting into a smile.
“Ah, then can we just go around the chieftain’s area?”
“Are you going to fight me now? Foreigners are never allowed to enter the interior.”
“Chief, are you a racist? In this day and age?”
“What, what?”
I opened my mouth again, seeing the agitated mountain goats who could see their pigtails quivering at my words.
“If you say no to outsiders without a good reason, you can’t help but wonder if that’s racial discrimination?”
“I don’t do anything vulgar like that!”
“Then why are you stopping me? Wouldn’t the upper end let you through? Oh, then, are you being discriminated against for being powerless and having no money now?”
“No, it’s not like that.”
“If not, what is it? As you can see, the only combat type in our party is the black-haired guy over there, and the rest are non-combat type. Do you think they came to occupy this place?”
“Don’t insult the chieftain, human. You can’t be ashamed. You’ve been shooting magic a while ago, and you’re good at lying. How dare you take our children!”
As the tribal chief seems to be pushed away, a man with wild black hair and a leopard print on his body screams ferociously.
“If there are wizards or shamans out there, they would know. I’m not a wizard, so the magic was using a scroll, not my ability. You are the ones who are putting pressure on the helpless civilians right now.”
“Noisy. Why are you so obsessed with going inland?”
As if gaining strength from the leopard man’s words, the tribal chief shot me again with sharp incense and added another word.
“For now, it would be better to get off the horse with ease. If you don’t go outside, I’ll take you back to our tribe and check it out.”
As a result, everyone holding small hand arrows and spears made the atmosphere ugly, and Kane also raised his hand on the sword accordingly.
“stop… Please stop it… … . Bocchan is not that kind of person. Please explain what’s going on… … .”
In the end, Luna, who was in full swing of her timidity trait surrounded by strangers, took off her robe to show her ears and stammered to open her mouth.
Their eyes grazed Luna’s neck, wrists, and ankles.
They think I’ve filled up a slave necklace or shackles.
“Even if you came with your own people, that doesn’t prove your faith.”
“For now, only the rabbit girl should come here. We need to talk.”
At their words, Luna turned and looked at me.
I nodded my head as if I was okay with seeing Luna.
